You are right that What I documented to the mgmt is not what I projected. But anyway it saved mine job as I am able to get it working in 2 days. I know that Installing and configuring the Envrionment is not a major hurdle but how to usitlise the Services to really get RAC benefit is another Task. I am working on it extensively at all places so as to clearly understand the concept and utilize it.

thanks Again for all comments
Sanjay

Thanks to everyone for suggestion. I am able to get all 4 node RAC Working on Linux RHEL 4 on 64 bit platform and using Oracle 10g Rel2. Thanks to Indy who sent me a very step by screen shot document for 6 node setup which was very close to me. He has used Raw devices for Oracle CLuster files and so I also finally used Raw devices as Oracle 10g Installer is not able to see the OCFS2 even it was installed successfully (1.0.9) version and I had mounted the OCFS2 filesystem with datavolumen option.

An interesting thing is that Indy has given step by stpe usage of Cluvy command and when I started, mine Kernel was 2.6.9-11.0.0.10.3.ELsmp and I installed OCFS2 (1.0.4) and when I ran Clufy to check the SSA option, it shows that Shared storage is visible but as I am getting some other issue and so I decided to upgrade it to 2.6.9.22 as per Indy doc and even upgraded the OCFS2 to 1.0.9 but then Cluvfy stopped showing the shared storage.

Earlier I was not able to get ASMLib driver for 2.6.9-11.0.0.10.3.ELsmp on otn site but it work perfect with 2.6.9.22 and everything went exactly as per the doc.

I admit that I am not an experienced but sometime some guidelines will really help and I got it lot of time from the list expert and I say again thanks to all of you as it is beacuse of the experts in the list that I am almost done with mine setup. Mine database for ASM as well as Cluster databasse is on SAM storage.

Thanks

For production? Mladen, this is sarcasm right? I can't begin to count the differences between plain old Linux NFS4 and the NFS server implementation (including specialized hardware) that a NetApp filer offers.
